Women's Moab 2 Mid Waterproof Hiking Boot

I have been desperate to find a decent comfortable pair of hiking boots or sneakers. I could not find any after repeated tries - my main thing I was looking for was something supportive (as I have on/off plantar fascitis) and I wanted lots of space in the front for my toes (had issue with previous sneakers with pressure on my toenails, a few turned black & blue from some sneakers I had - and could not deal with that). So normally in sneakers I take a 8 medium. I ordered these up not only 1/2 size but ordered the wide (so I ordered the 8.5 Wide) OMG I LOVE LOVE LOVE THESE! NO breaking in at all. Literally from the moment I put them on I have had total comfort - no issues, sizing is great - room for my toes especially if you get hot, your feet will expand. I cannot say enough good things about these. I also had tried (before ordering these) the Keen version - sent them right back - they were not comfy and they did not have wide options. As mentioned I normally do not take wide - but in a hiking boot - it makes a huge difference - I love these so much! They have great traction, are super easy to tie, tons of padding around the top. I hope they NEVER ever discontinue this model - this is one of the best footwear I have owned ever....

Occasionally I work events where I put in an 80-hour week and am mostly walking and standing on concrete. Having plantar fasciitis due to very high arches, I'm usually in excruciating pain by the second or third day and miserable for at least a week afterwards. I've tried MANY different brands of shoes/boots (even very expensive ones) and several types of inserts. Some were better than others but I was still always in a lot of pain. I also usually wear kinesiology tape during events, because it's the only thing other than ice that really brings me any relief. I ordered a pair of these Merrells and received them the day before I left for an event. I wore them around my house for about 30 minutes before I threw them in my suitcase, then wore them for the entire week and had ZERO pain even on the very last day! I didn't even tape my feet, and I had no desire to wear any of the other shoes I brought. I'm in absolute awe at the difference. And the fact that I had no rubs or blisters wearing them pretty much straight out of the box was really impressive. The grey/periwinkle color I purchased is really nice and neutral enough to go with most colors. Some shoes make my size 10 feet look huge, but I felt like these were actually really cute for hiking boots. I walked through mud and dirt in these and they kept my feet warm and dry and easily wiped clean. The grip is excellent, and they did well on wet pavement and over slushy ice. I ordered my usual size and they fit perfectly.

I haven’t hiked in these yet, but I formerly used the Moab SHOE by Merrell, so I know they produce e a quality product that will last you years. My feet have NEVER hurt after a hike. When my trusty shoes wore out, I knew I wanted to order the boot version next for the ankle support and let me tell you: my ankles are so cozy in these boots! I mainly wanted to elaborate on the sizing. I am a TRUE 7.5, but I typically wear an 8 in my street shoes and work flats & heels. If there are whole sizes only, I’m definitely an 8. I’m never a 7, and never an 8.5. HOWEVER, in my running shoes (Hoka) and hiking shoes, I am an 8.5. You want to give your foot some room to swell, and move around a bit (aka, not be jammed in there). Go up 1 size from your TRUE foot size, and you’ll be golden. Or go up a half size from what you typically wear. I typically wear an 8, and half size up from that is perfect for me. My shoes were an 8.5 and so are these and the fit is perfect. Not squished, and not swimming in them. Can’t wait to use these this weekend!

Very comfortable and stylish hiking boots. Perfect fit

I’m an avid hiker and runner who up until now relied on their running sneakers (with an extra pair of socks or two) for even rigorous or wet hikes. I have a high arch and a bone spur on the back of both my heels that make finding shoes very difficult: lack of support leaves my hips and knees aching and the wrong back to the shoe leaves me bloody, so I don’t like to waste time and money if I find something that works ok. This winter, though, I’m planning a hike in icy mountain conditions plus need a new pair of boots for regular snow days in NYC, so decided it was time to bite the bullet. I did a lot of research and picked these to try first and I am so glad I found these! Thank you to all the reviewers here for your help! These are much lighter in weight then I thought they would be. I am somewhere between a 7.5 and 8 in shoes and went with the 8. They fit perfectly: not too snug but not at all loose. It’s hard to describe- they secure around your ankle and then they’re so light, they sort of just gently cradle around your foot. They don’t feel “cushy” like my sneakers but my feet feel supported and are completely protected from feeling the impact of hitting the ground. I took them for an inaugural 6mile hike in the small mountain reservation near my parents house in NJ, without any breaking in. The arch support is great, no aches and pains in my joints or feet. Miraculously no blisters, either. The conditions here are currently unseasonably warm and very humid, with heavy ground cover of wet leaves and pools of mud. The traction on the wet leaves/rocky mountain terrain, even while being pulled by a German Shepherd, was fantastic. I didn’t slip at all and my feet stayed dry. Plus I discovered how nice it is to have some extra ankle support. These boots did run a little hot, which is why I gave four stars. I tend to run hot myself. The good news is that even though they felt a little hot, my feet didn’t sweat (I was sweating otherwise in the warm humidity). These will be great boots for when the chill comes back and through the winter and early spring for both nature hiking and urban hiking through rain/snow.

Parfait pour prendre de longues marches. Confortable

To hike and travel.

I went for a six km hike yesterday.....NO sore feet, NO sore legs, and feet were completely dry. I have never had such a comfortable pair of boots before...I ordered a half size up....and they are a perfect fit. Will recommend these boots to anyone.

Boots fit well, are comfortable and warm. Bought them late 2020 and did not wear them much until fall 2021. First time out in rain was a few weeks ago. Feet were wet in a matter of seconds. Very disappointed as information on on Amazon claims the boots are waterproof. Would give 5 stars if they were.

I have asked for the return as the size was too small and the material has been taken still the refund is pending and it shows the shoe hasn't received by u also, need a reply and status of my refund
